Player Stat Comparisons: Louisville vs. Kentucky

Because Kentucky plays a “Platoon System” it’s a little abnormal to look at these as player for player. And in the case of both teams, the Cards and Cats have players that can fit into multiple positions. This won’t be perfect. But it is the representation we thought would be best to use.

Point Guards

These are your likely point guard match-ups. In the case of Louisville Terry Rozier will be used at point guard at some point during the game.

Again this isn’t perfect and it made a lot more sense before the Alex Poythress injury.

Jaylen Johnson will likely see clock here as well but the Cats don’t have a player that matches not already listed elsewhere.
